As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

I agree, LisaPooh -- the big question on my mind is WHY these four? My first thought is these 4 are considered "bad" by the others and maybe their biggest threat and they want to capture them -- BUT --

--while Jack is annoying as all heck with his attitude, I never thought of him as bad. Though he is Locke's nemesis or the Yang to Locke's Yin, in a way.

--Sawyer can easily fit the "bad" mold (but I love him anyway).

--Kate has been very bad in her past, but it wasn't like she murdered an innocent person.

--Hurley seems all around nice guy, no threat -- so why is he among the four??

I can't wait until next week to get some more answers, along with a million new questions, I'm sure. I agree that last night's ep was very slow and paled in comparison to the previous 2. Michael just gets on my nerves -- just too over-the-top. Yes, I understand you want Walt back, but chill out a little. I hope they find out Michael murdered Ana & Libby before the end of next week's ep. What will Hurley do when he finds out?

Sayid is the MAN and I can't wait to see what plan he comes up with. I'm thinking maybe he will follow them as a backup to see what is going on, but he would need a couple of others and with Eko on a one-track mission with the button & Locke off in his own world (I think he's off to find the others himself for answers) -- the only ones left are Jin & Charlie -- not a very good "recon army," to say the least.

I can't recall Eko's visions, so I may be wrong. But Charlie's visions were more of encompassing, different worlds, more like a dream than anything.

Sawyer, Kate (Black Horse), Jack (father), and Hurley (Dave) saw one person, interacting with them and the island, in the island's full setting. The other ones were more like hallucinations than visions or apparitions.

Jack- He is a Dr. and seems to be a pretty good one. I can see why they would want him with his medical experience.

Sawyer- He may be "bad" but he is smart. He horded the guns, the medicine, some food, and who knows what else. He used them as bargaining because he did not have anything else. He is a con man who plays his game well.

Kate- Tough person who will do whatever it takes to reach her end goal. She is smart, and resilient, and strong.

Hurley- I want to think that maybe it has something to do with his mental illness. Some people believe that those with the type of illness he has can see an alternate dimension, somewhat like small kids can see their guardian angels if they are never told they do not exist.

I think they each offer something that is needed for the continuance of the others existence.

Why are Ms. Klugh and the others interested in the charade of the tent city? Is that for Michael's benefit only? Walt indicated that they are not appear and we know from Claire's flashback that they are more sophisticated.

Good catch Lisapooh....forgot that faux Henry said they wanted Locke. Why Jack, Hurley, Kate and Sawyer?

And they are obviously disguising themselves to look like they're living hand-to-mouth and without technology. I'll bet that behind that hatch door is where all of Walt's "tests" are taking place.

Jack, Kate, Hurley, and Sawyer, eh? Why them? Why not Locke? Wasn't Henry/Not Henry's mission to bring him back? Maybe it was really just to screw with his head, cuz he did a great job of that.

It's kind of interesting how Locke and Charlie have sort of switched places on the Faith spectrum. And I'm really disappointed that they've turned Locke into such a whiny little bey-otch. I still believe that Charlie will be redeemed...and then killed.

I enjoyed this episode. Can't figure out why they want those four in particular, expeically Hurley unless they are the ones that have the most atoning to do.

Let's try and figure out what they would all have in common.

Relationships borne on the island?

Jack and Sawyer certainly have a connection through Jack's dad at least.

Were they all four on the scene when the hatch opened? Could they have all been infected?

Do they need Hurley as a food source? Okay, probably not.

Although with Hurley it is interesting to note that he never, ever showed any anger. He didn't even want to be involved in the rescue of Walt. Until . . .after Libby's funeral. His tune changed. He is seeking revenge now.

Is everyone seeking revenge rather than offering forgiveness? If so, why wouldn't the Others want Sayid?
